This is one of the Westview Special Studies in International Economics and Business. The three authors were all associated with The Futures Group. This book describes European and Japanese nontariff barriers (NTBs) in areas of high-technology trade and discusses their impact on the international behavior of U.S. firms. This study was prompted by the rising incidence of nontariff measures in high-technology sectors, as governments increasingly attempt to promote the growth of new industries through various domestic subsidy policies and import protection. As applied in high-technology sectors, protectionism typically includes discriminatory government procurement, incompatible standards and product certification procedures, performance requirements, import licensing, and a failure to protect intellectual property. The authors use case histories to explore the incidence and impacts of these nontariff measures. Impacts are described in company-specific terms and include, for example, company efforts to redeploy research and development activities within the protected market, thus stimulating increased transfer of technology; alteration of product characteristics and the direction of research and development to satisfy local specifications; joint venturing with local partners, as well as with larger U.S. firms with an established market position; and abandoning the market entirely. The book includes a number of policy recommendations designed to reorient international trade negotiations toward the wide range of nontariff barrier impacts and the particular difficulties that smaller firms have in dealing with import restrictions.…

The pueblos and cliff dwellings they built during their halcyon days between 1100 and 1500 are the most spectacular ruins north of Mexico. In this book, all of the significant and accessible Anasazi ruins are photographed and described in detail. Many of the photographs are aerial views showing the interrelationships of the structures and the intrinsic beauty of the settings. All extant Anasazi ruins are included here, but special attention is paid to the magnificent sites of Mesa Verde, Chaco Canyon, Canyon de Chelly, and Kaytena. Also included are illustrations of rock art and examples of the delicate jewelry and beautiful ceramics that have survived. Because the Anasazi left no written records, interpretations of their culture vary dramatically. The authors present the most current research and a balanced view of contradictory theories, making this book a readable, engaging, and authoritative study in an ancient people and the places they inhabited. Anyone interested in the prehistoric cultures of the Southwest will find this lavishly illustrated volume both informative and delightful to look at."-- Publisher ; FINE. Book.…
